    Hope all rodders in the Granbury and Cleburne areas are OK after the big twisters that hit them tonight. God bless you folks and your friends and neighbors too.

    Saw that. Female reporter I was listening to said "look at this pickup truck damaged when the roof colapsed on it". It looked like a 40 ford coupe inside.

    We are in Springtown and there were bad storms all around us but nothing but rain here.

    Being semi retired I got time to help anybody out there that needs it and I got a car trailer with a winch.

    When I was watching, my first thought was to my fiancées maid of honor that lives there, the second thought was to fellow HAMBers. Hope you are all ok.

    Saw a pic of a looked like a chopped 36 3/W with a garage roof setting on the front of it but didn't look too bad, it wasn't mine so easy for me to say.
    Just feel sorry for all the folks down that way, so many injured according to the news if you can believe them. Tomorrow they will have a different story. What ever happened to getting the story right the first time? The reporter said they were still looking for missing people.

    I've been watching it on the news. My sister has friends up there and they said it's a war zone. So far, 15 dead, but there's still some people missing.

    Texas has had some devastation this past 2 weeks! This morning, wife Joey and I awoke to this news of the tornado... Our prayers are with you, Texas.

    Wish I were closer to be of help.

    I bought my 34' Hiboy in Granby Tx right about a year ago. I can't help but wonder if I saved it's pretty behind by taking it home with me. I just hope like hell the guy I bought it from escaped injury, damage or both.

    I live near Granbury, the tornado was about 10 miles east of me. I hate to admit it but I think I was more worried about my shop and car being blown away than I was my own house. I got lucky on this one!
